Huge, good news for Deshaun Watson:
The former Clemson and current Houston Texans quarterback will not face criminal charges.
On Friday, women who filed criminal complaints against Watson appeared before a grand jury, which did not charge him on any of the criminal complaints for alleged sexual misconduct.
Watson, who demanded a trade from Houston in January 2021, remained on the team’s active roster last season but was a healthy scratch for all 17 games.
It was recently reported that multiple NFL teams were willing to take a chance on trading for Watson, as long as his criminal charges got resolved.
The Carolina Panthers and Washington Commanders are two teams reportedly interested in trading for Watson, a three-time Pro Bowler who had an NFL-leading 4,823 passing yards when he last played in 2020.
Watson would have to sign off on any deal due to his no-trade clause.

Now that the criminal matters are over — and Deshaun Watson won’t be charged — expect his trade market to ramp up quickly. Teams have been waiting. This clears the path for a deal by the start of the league year.

This is why Deshaun Watson, from the beginning, welcomed a police investigation: He felt he knew that the truth would come out. And today, a grand jury did not charge him on any of the criminal complaints.
